Disaster Scones

Let me tell you about my latest: me and scones. I should just say no! Resist the temptation of thinking myself a scone-baker. It simply doesn’t work. I followed the recipe to the last dot (so there is no way I can blame Bill for the result) but they simply didn’t come out as scones should. They look gorgeous, fluffy, pretty in Bill’s book. Mine – self defense little weapons! Hard, hard, hard. Oh, and no bottoms. Bottomless hard scones, that’s what I baked.

Of course this did not stop us from eating them. I stand by my mistakes. But scones equal disaster in my kitchen. Now that I’ve told you mine, what about yours? (No, not scones, disasters. Although I would be grateful for a foolproof scones recipe.)
